    My OH despairs and will leave them on the worktop above after a quick 'man glance' into the drawer and deciding they absolutely will not fit (so much for males being more spatially aware:rotfl:)

    Same here hubby dries them and leaves them on the top of the cupboards as he can't get it fit.

    My dishwasher broke and after a year of not doing anything about getting it mended had it taken out and replaced by a cupboard for all my storage containers.

    I've got a fully functional but currently unused tall fridge which I use to store my plastic containers. I had a good sort out a couple of months ago and got rid of any which didn't have lids and lids which didn't have containers. I also had a load of margarine tubs which I culled. I still struggle to fit all the containers in the fridge though.

    I am very ashamed to say i have a cupbhoard of tupperware. Always with lids. ALWAYS PUT AWAY WITH LIDS! It's like a real live game of tetris to fit everything in!:p:o
    A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men :cool:

    If you go on their website you could find out if there are any consultants in your area. Or have a look on Amazon.
